Page 2: SACRED HEART OF JESUS CATHOLIC CHURCH...Psalm — Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation (Psalm 85). Second Reading — The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ July 12th, 2015 Decimoquinto Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario ~ 12 de julio del 2015 Truth shall spring out of the earth, and justice shall look down from heaven. — Psalm 85:12 La fidelidad brotó en la tierra y la justicia vino del cielo.— Salmo 85 (84):12

Today’s Readings First Reading — They Amos said, “The Lord took me from following the flock, and said to me, Go, prophesy to my people” (Amos 7:12-15). Psalm — Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation (Psalm 85). Second Reading — The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing (Ephesians 1:3-14 [3-10]). Gospel — Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two (Mark 6:7-13). The English translation of the Psalm Responses from the Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997, International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.

Readings for the Week Monday: Ex 1:8-14, 22; Ps 124:1b-8; Mt 10:34 — 11:1 Tuesday: Ex 2:1-15a; Ps 69:3, 14, 30-31, 33-34; Mt 11:20-24 Wednesday: Ex 3:1-6, 9-12; Ps 103:1b-4, 6-7; Mt 11:25-27 Thursday: Ex 3:13-20; Ps 105:1, 5, 8-9, 24-27; Mt 11:28-30 Friday: Ex 11:10 — 12:14; Ps 116:12-13, 15, 16bc, 17-18; Mt 12:1-8 Saturday: Ex 12:37-42; Ps 136:1, 23-24, 10-15; Mt 12:14-21 Sunday: Jer 23:1-6; Ps 23:1-6; Eph 2:13-18; Mk 6:30-34

God’s Word Today...Today we hear three stories

about people being chosen by God: Amos the prophet, the Twelve, and all those who are baptized into Christ—which means us! Often when we think about people such as prophets and apostles who were chosen by God to fulfill a special task, we think about old bearded men who seem so far off and remote. Yet these were people like us, who chose to respond to God’s call within the context of their everyday lives. Perhaps today’s scrip-tures are inviting us to remember the call that was issued by God at the moment of our baptism. Listen to the words of Saint Paul in today’s second reading to discover just what that call entails. Our world is still in desperate need of prophets and apostles. Peace and justice seem so elusive in our time. Perhaps today’s word of God will inspire us to respond to God’s call to bring the gospel of salvation to those we meet in our everyday lives.

Lecturas de la Semana Lunes: Gn Ex 14:5-18; Ex 15:1bc-6; Mt 12:38-42 Martes: Ex 14:21 — 15:1; Ex 15:8-10, 12, 17; Mt 12:46-50 Miércoles: Ex 16:1-5, 9-15; Sal 78 (77):18-19, 23-28; Jn 20:1-2, 11-18 Jueves: Ex 19:1-2, 9-11, 16-20b; Dn 3:52-56; Mt 13:10-17 Viernes: Ex 20:1-17; Sal 19 (18):8-11; Mt 13:18-23 Sábado: 2 Cor 4:7-15; Sal 126 (125):1bc-6; Mt 20:20-28 Domingo: 2 Re 4:42-44; Sal 145 (144):10-11, 15-18; Ef 4:1-6; Jn 6:1-15

La Palabra de Dios Hoy...Hoy escuchamos tres

historias acerca de personas que fueron escogidas por Dios: Amós el profeta, los Doce y todos los que han sido bautizados en Cristo, o sea ¡nosotros! Con frecuencia pen-samos que los profetas y apóstoles que fueron escogidos por Dios para una tarea especial eran hombres viejos y barbudos que nos parecen muy remotos. Sin embargo, éstas fueron personas como nosotros, que decidieron responder al llamado de Dios dentro del contexto de su vida cotidiana. Tal vez las Escrituras de hoy nos invitan a recordar el llamado que nos hizo Dios en el momento de nuestro bautismo. Escuchemos las palabras de san Pablo en la segunda lectura de hoy para descubrir lo que ese llamado conlleva. Nuestro mundo aún está desesperada-mente necesitado de profetas y apóstoles. La paz y la justicia parecen tan elusivas en nuestra época. Quizás la palabra de Dios hoy nos inspire a responder al llamado de Dios de llevar el Evangelio de la salvación a aquellos que encontramos diariamente en el camino de nuestra vida. De St.. Margaret Sunday Missal derechos de autor © J. S. Paluch Company

Stewardship Reflections ~ 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time: July 12, 2015 ~ That we may learn from the Apostles to give up our strong

attachment to material possessions. Our journey through life is more difficult because of all the material baggage that we drag along. The more we can let go of, the freer we are to serve God with love and joy.

Reflexiones de Mayordomía~15º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario, 12 de julio del 2015: Que podamos aprender de los apóstoles a rendir

nuestro fuerte apego a las posesiones materiales. Nuestro camino de la vida es más difícil por todo el equipaje material que cargamos. Cuanto más podamos dejar, mas libres somos de servir a Dios con amor y alegría.

WHAT IS A PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL? A parish pastoral council is the chief

consultative body to the pastor. Consultation is a sharing of wisdom that enables the parish to carry out its mission. The pastoral council discerns issues that impact the lives of parishioner, prays, studies, and discusses those issues, and recommends practical ways of addressing them. HOW DOES A PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL OPERATE? A council meets once a month with the pastor to consider pastoral issues. It listens carefully to the concerns of the pastor, the parish staff and others involved in the life of the parish. Through prayer and discernment it searches for the guidance of the holy Spirit and reaches decisions through consensus. Sacred heart of Jesus Parish Pastoral Council meets the second Monday of each month from 7:00pm to 8:30 pm . Regular attendance at meetings is critical. WHO SHOULD BE A MEMBER OF A PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL? A council member should be at least of high school age, prayerful, care about the spiritual well-being of the entire community, be willing to learn about the universal Church, have a sense of mission: to bring Christ to people and people to Christ, and be involved in the life and activities of the parish. A council member must be prepared to make a sincere commitment and attend meetings consistently. ALL THOSE INTERESTED IN SERVING ON OUR PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL! It is necessary to attend the Information Night on Saturday, August 15, at 11:00 am in the Parish Life Center. We anticipate the meeting to last about an hour. It will also be necessary to attend the Parish Pastoral Council Discernment process on Saturday, August 22, from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 pm in the Parish Life Center. Please prayerfully consider being a part of our Parish Pastoral Council.

Thank you! Your brother in Christ, Fr. Tom

Over the years, many people have asked me: “Why do I have to attend Mass every

Sunday?” Or have expressed to me: “Church doesn’t do anything for me!”

If you have ever heard these comments or have ever felt this way yourself, please read the following account:

A church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. ‘I’ve gone for 30 years now,’ he wrote, ‘and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons, but for the life of me, I can’t remember a single one of them so, I think I’m wasting my time and the priests are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all.’

This started a real controversy in the ‘Letters to the Editor’ column. Much to the delight of the editor it went on for weeks until someone write this clincher: ‘I’ve been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this...They all nourished me and gave me the strength that I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!’

Please consider sharing this with someone you care about. Your brother in Christ, Fr. Tom

A través de los años, mucha gente me ha hecho esta pregunta: "¿por qué tengo

que asistir a Misa cada domingo?" O me ha expresado: "¡La Iglesia no hace nada para mí!"

Si alguna vez has escuchado estos comentarios o alguna vez te has sentido de tal manera, favor de leer el siguiente relato:

Una persona que asiste a la iglesia regularmente le escribió una carta al editor de un periódico y quejándose que no tenía ningún sentido en ir a la iglesia todos los domingos. Escribió: 'Tengo 30 años de haber asistido Misa, y durante ese tiempo he escuchado algunos 3,000 sermones, pero no puedo recordar ni un solo de estos sermones. Así que pienso que estoy perdiendo mi tiempo y que los sacerdotes están perdiendo su tiempo en predicando sus sermones.'

Esto produjo una verdadera controversia en la sección de "Cartas al Editor". Y mucho al gusto del editor pasaron varias semanas hasta que alguien escribió el argumento decisivo: 'Llevo 30 años de casado y durante este tiempo mi esposa ha preparado unas 32,000 comidas. Sin embargo, no puedo recordar precisamente todo el menú de una sola de esas comidas. Pero si se esto...todas me alimentaron y me dieron la fuerza necesaria para hacer mi trabajo. Si mi esposa no me hubiera preparado estas comidas, yo ahorita estaría físicamente muerto. Asimismo, si yo no hubiera ido a la iglesia y para alimentarme, hoy estaría espiritualmente muerto!'

Por favor considere compartir esto con un ser querido.

Tu hermano en Cristo, el Padre Tom

We will be fundraising after all the Masses over the next several weekends for donations. Thank you again for your generous support!!!!
